Hi Folks, Have been banging my head against this for past couple hours, have been googling around on opensolaris.org and over the whole web and what not.
Basically my system boot keeps running into: Requesting System Maintenance Mode (See /lib/svc/share/README for more information.) Console login service(s) cannot run Root password for system maintenance (control-d to bypass): I keep logging in and checking things like /var/svc/logs, which looks very clean. Doing svcadm enable console-login which runs fine too. But i never seem to be able to get past SMF's console service. Tried running /lib/svc/method/console-login start "by hand" which, understandbly gets stuck waiting for console (from where i am typing that command, via a sulogin shell), so obviously it is not gonna be able to grab the console. But it does prove that there is no problem with console-login service itself. So, why does SMF keeps insisting that "Console login service(s) cannot run"? I have tried things like booting with "-m milestone=none" and hoping that i can successfully boot into multi-user mode after that. Tried booting into single user mode, no luck, still keep running into "Console login service(s) cannot run" with no helpful error messages to indicate exactly WHY can they not run? At this point i would typically reinstall, but that would set me back a couple days and i am running already behind. I am probably missing something very obvious here. Can't seem to find what that is. In utter frustration i even saved the manifest for console-login.xml then DELETED the service and re-added it... Still no help... Any clues?
